How can we divide it?

Diagrams like number lines and animations help us show and explain real life situations.  

Websites: 
Interactive number line investigates making equivalent fractions and finding common multiples.  

Math Animation explores finding out how to sort markers and video game prizes into paper bags.

Problems:
1.  If x=5 and y=3 prove that:

6x  - 5 =  5
y

3y-x +9 = 18-5
